"Why did your friend race off when you told her it was 1 o'clock?"
Andrea asked, as she took a sip out of her tea, Taylor laughed, checking the exact time. 1 minute till Ava realises her new song, and tells the world that an album is coming.
"Oh cause she has a song realising right about now."
Taylor said as the clock ticked over to 1:13 or in 24 hour time, like Ava liked to use 13:13. Taylor pulling up the song and started to play it for her family.
"Sick of forgetting, tired of pretending
All that shit you said is burning
And I'm sorry, but I can't forget
Friendship is hurting, parents say it's learning
But it's so disturbing
Is it really meant to be like this?"
Ava's voice could be heard through Taylor's phone,
"I'm not so sure that I can handle that
My heart's so sore, it feels like it might crack
Against a wall, I can't take a step back
Step back (back, back, back)
You don't know a thing about me (about me)
About me (about me), about me
Strangled by your jealousy (jealousy)
Of me (of me), of me (of me)
You only see what you wanna see
So why don't you tell me what you really think?
You don't know a thing about me (about me)
About me (about me), about me (about me)
You don't know a thing"
Ava sung the chorus and precohorus, Taylor really vibing with the song.
"Always defending, seems it's never-ending
Guess our self-doubt's unrelenting
And I'm sorry that you feel that way
But all this talking, and relentless mocking
It is so exhausting, and I know that I'm worth more than that
I'm not so sure that I can handle this
My heart's so sore, it feels like I can't breathe
Against a wall, I'm falling to my knees
My knees (knees, knees, knees)
You don't know a thing about me (about me)
About me (about me), about me
Strangled by your jealousy (jealousy)
Of me (of me), of me (of me)
You only see what you wanna see
So why don't you tell me what you really think?
You don't know a thing about me (about me)
About me (about me), about me (about me)
You don't know a thing"
The Swift family listening intently, not yet admitting to each other that they love the song.
"You don't know a thing
You don't know a thing
{You don't know a thing)
You don't know a thing about me
About me, about me
Strangled by your jealousy
Of me, of me
You only see what you wanna see
So why don't you tell me what you really think?
You don't know a thing about me (about me)
About me (about me), about me (about me)
You don't know a thing (about me, about me, about me)
You don't know a thing (about me, about me, about me)
You don't know a thing"
The song came to an end and the entire Swift family was in awe, Taylor flicking to Insta to see Ava's post about the album drop. There was a gasp from the other side of the room, Taylor looked up to see Austen staring at something on his phone. Before Taylor could ask him what it was Ava walked back into the room and Austen pointed at her.
"You. How could you?"
Austen said, Ava laughed,
"You're going to have to be more specific."
Ava chuckled as she sat next to Taylor on the couch, Taylor laughed at the interaction.
"How could you just drop an album and not tell us before the day of?"
Austen asked, Ava laughed once again,
"Very few people knew before the announcement, and that list only includes your sister because she has a duet on the album."
